I almost didn't buy this leather jacket, but I'm glad I did. I've always wanted a black leather jacket because it's a staple but I thought I'd change it up and go with a gunmetal grey instead. This is my new favourite blouse, I've been wearing it with everything (high waist dress pants, shorts, and boyfriend jeans) - I absolutely LOVE it, especially all the tiny grey polka dots!
If you're wondering why my tights look a little messed up, I made the mistake of wearing them with a sequined skirt. A little unintentional DIY resulted in a pair of slightly destroyed tights, which I still think looks great. Also, I tried a multicoloured manicure because I always wear rings on my index and third fingers. I didn't want to leave my pinky and ring finger out so I thought I'd paint them a different colour - what do you think?

YESSSSSSSSSS MY FAVOURITE RINGS IN ONE!! HAHHAHAHAHAH YAYAYAYAYY
great blouse!!! :)
Great outfit as usual! I love the multicoloured mani and the mix of cocktail rings. :-)
my best manicure ever was when I painted my nails black. haha I had a phase where I just painted them black..the manicurist liked my nails and fingers so much that she added delicate white designs on them. It was very nice and Victorian-goth looking.
Having different colours makes it different and unique
the outfit is subtle and subdued but sexy all in one
I love the sheer top.... goes nicely with the El Nina shaking up Vancouver weather.
I'm also going to have to pick up that Mint Candy Apple polish. Essie always stays on so long!
love your nail polish and the rings!

Oh every girl needs a leather jacket ;) and you cannot go wrong with Mackage hehe I've been looking for a grey nail polish JUST like yours (as well as the mint apple shade of Essie)!! And I can totally see why you love that blouse - sheer and polkadotted? So lovely.
It's great that you didn't pass up on the jacket.. it's awesome! Love the nails too.. I was acutally doing that a while back.. but just painting my wedding ring finger nail a different color.. :) Hope you had a fabulous weekend.

Ouu, love the sheer blouse. Adds such a feminine touch to your outfit. Oh and have I mentioned how much I love the plaid detail on the interior of your leather jacket? It's so lovelyy!
I have serious shoe envy right now. LOVE those LRs.

The whole look is really pretty and I love the nail colors :)
Ohmigosh I have that same exact owl ring from Forever 21, only mine is gold - now I want it in silver too; and - funny funny - I just ordered a bottle of Essie's Mint Candy Apple and am counting down the days until it arrives.
Oh, I love everything about these pictures. You are fabulous, Nicole - and I've missed your posts!! :)
ooh love the nails and the rings are amazing!
Looking good! Loving the nail colours-I'm obsessed with changing my polish every week now haha.
Mackage jacket + LR's= perfection and splurge worthy.
Also, I love how you mixed & matched your outfit. It's great that you incorporated more expensive items with less expensive ones. It's my favourite thing to do :)
Anyways, have a good week! Enjoy all the Olympic festivites.

cute! and can't believe it's warm enough to wear shorts with fairly opaque tight. lovely.
the blouse was the first thing i noticed immediately - i want it! and so romantic with the locket necklaces.
I love your rings and you pull them off so well! I love the pyramid one and the owl one I've never seen before!
You need to be featured in a magazine...seriously.
i love everything about this look. The blouse is so girly and perfect the shoes are a mystery in a good way and all the rings make my heart jump

I love the two hottest colors together on your nails. Is that sephora's metrochic or Chanel's particuliere?? I bought the chanel one couple weeks back.. have yet to try it! The owl ring is so adorable :)
